Grand Prix (1 entry)
"Personalized English Teaching Materials" created with Gemini and NotebookLM
Turning daily "good things" into your own personalized English teaching materials. The work by Fumoneko | Word Learning and Tool Making, which introduced a language learning method born from a small habit before bed, was chosen for the Grand Prix. 1) Write down three good things that happened that day every night, 2) summarize them at the end of the month, and 3) generate English audio materials with NotebookLM. Your daily memories then transform into your very own English teaching materials! Because it is based on your own experiences, it is easy to understand, and study time becomes a time to rediscover daily happiness. It is a learning method you will want to imitate.

☕️✨ [#AIandLearning] Regaining the "excitement of cooking" lost to parenting with Gemini! Innovative "coffee-flavored" roast chicken achieved through science
JapaneseFoodMusic, who took on the challenge of developing a "recipe suggestion app that creates the best surprises in little time" with AI as a partner. They say it provides creative roast chicken recipes, alcohol pairing suggestions, and even the scientific basis for the deliciousness. It chronicles the experience of how Gemini brought them back from a daily life seeking only efficiency to a special time of "culinary discovery."
Maximizing online English conversation learning with Gemini
Minyan, who combines Gemini with online English conversation to make the most of a 50-minute weekly lesson. By having the AI point out and correct all grammatical errors in the conversation and deepening the theme in advance, they achieve high-quality discussions. This is an AI utilization method that serves as a reference for those who want to learn English efficiently.
Looking back on the contest
The following is a comment from the Google Gemini note team.
Thank you for submitting so many works full of intellectual curiosity and ingenuity to "#AIandLearning." I am very happy to see that AI is being used not just for simple memorization or efficiency, but as a "partner to expand the joy of learning" to change the landscape of daily life.
In the winning works in particular, I was impressed by how you are designing your own "forms of learning" with Gemini and NotebookLM, such as turning happy daily records into your own English teaching materials, unraveling the science of cooking with AI to regain lost excitement, or dramatically improving the quality of online lessons.
I hope that the insights born from dialogue with AI will open up new possibilities for you and serve as an opportunity to rediscover the joy of learning. We look forward to Gemini being able to help you alongside your endless quest for knowledge.
